If the calculator has the option for fractions, it will usually have a key labelled "a b/c". Use this "fraction" key to input fractions.

For example, to input 1/2, type 1 (fraction) 2; to input 3 1/2 (three and one-half), type 3 (fraction) 1 (fraction) 2.

If the calculator DOES NOT have the option for fractions (though most modern scientific calculators do), you can write the fraction as a division; for example if you type 2 / 3, you get two divided by three, which is the same as the fraction 2/3. In such a case, the calculator will show the result in decimal, though.

How do you turn a percentage into a fraction using a calculator?

That function depends on the calculator's capabilites. Some calculators do not show fractions. They only represent fractions as a decimal value (e.g. 50% is represented in the calculator as .5). If your calculator has a fraction function, you can enter 50% then press the fraction button & it will display 1/2 (which is the lowest fraction for 50%).

On the common Texas Instrument (TI) it looks like a fraction with a square instead of a number for the denominator and numerator. If you cannot find that button you can also put the fraction as division inside parenthesis for example 1 half could be put in as (1/2)
